When I try to compile my latest checkout on cygwin, I repeatedly get the following error:

make[2]: Entering directory '/cygdrive/c/Data/ruby/ext/openssl'
make[2]: *** No rule to make target 'ossl_pkcs5.h', needed by 'ossl.o'.  Stop.
make[2]: Leaving directory '/cygdrive/c/Data/ruby/ext/openssl'
make[1]: *** [exts.mk:244: ext/openssl/all] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory '/cygdrive/c/Data/ruby'
make: *** [uncommon.mk:236: build-ext] Error 2

The file was deleted in r59734, at ext/openssl/ossl_pkcs5.h.

Except in doc/ChangeLog-1.9.3, I cannot find any traces of the string "ossl_pkcs5", while the strings "ossl_pkcs7" and "ossl_pkcs12" appear frequently. But the error still persists.

That seems to have solved the problem, but it looks like a very heavy tool.
